An anonymous reader writes "The Wikimedia Foundation has released their Puppet configuration in a public git repository. They describe this as the first step in a project called Wikimedia Test/Dev Labs, letting users participate in the operations of Wikipedia and other Wikimedia Foundation sites."

The other major Abrahamic faiths (Judaism and Islam) also have Satan. The tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons has its own sort of devils called baatezu [wikipedia.org], powerful monsters belonging to an organization spanning the plane of Baator.

who put this openly theist comment in the config

In a way, computer programming is inherently theist. A programmer's work creates an environment within a process, and the programmer is interested in its maintenance.

Since Wikipedia is releasing the code to the Puppet application "which lets us write code that manages all of our servers like a single large application", I will release my "SockPuppet" application which allows me to manage all _MY_ Wikipedia articles like a single large community.
